Nellie Pou ditched our veterans for partisan games

November 10, 2025

As New Jerseyans prepare to honor America’s heroes this Veterans Day, we’re reminded that our service members deserve respect and reliable support. Nellie Pou rejected that principle, choosing political games over paying and supporting the men and women who serve our nation. President Trump stepped in to ensure our heroes received their checks, even while Pou left them out to dry. 

“Our veterans and service members should never be used as political leverage. They deserve paychecks, support, and gratitude, not Nellie Pou’s partisan games.” —  NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
